   • In a food processor, combine the unsalted butter bits, all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, and cayenne.
   • Pulse the mixture until it resembles coarse meal.

2. Add Cheese:

   • Add the sharp white cheddar cheese to the mixture in the food processor.
   • Pulse again until the mixture forms a dough.

3. Form the Dough:

   • Shape the dough into a disk.

4. Chill the Dough:

   • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill it until firm. This should take at least 30 minutes but can be left for up to 2 days.

5. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

6. Prepare Baking Sheet:

   • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

7. Roll Out the Dough:

   • On a lightly floured surface, use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out the dough into a 16- by 4-inch rectangle. Aim for a thickness of about 1/4 inch.

8. Trim and Brush:

   • Trim the edges of the rectangle and lightly brush the entire surface with water.

9. Add Flavor:

   • Sprinkle the rectangle with mustard seeds, and then sprinkle the remaining 2 teaspoons of kosher salt over the top.

10. Adhere Seeds and Salt:

    • Gently roll the rolling pin over the dough to help the seeds and salt adhere.

11. Cut Into Sticks:

    • With a sharp, long knife, cut the rectangle crosswise into roughly 1/3-inch-wide sticks.

12. Transfer to Baking Sheet:

    • Use a spatula to transfer the sticks to the prepared baking sheet, arranging them about 3/4 inch apart.

13. Bake:

    • Bake the sticks in the middle of the oven until they turn golden, which should take about 10 minutes.

14. Cool and Serve:

    • Once baked, transfer the cheddar sticks to a rack to cool. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

15. Storage:

    • Store the cheddar sticks in an airtight container at cool room temperature for up to 1 week, or freeze them for up to 1 month.
